Great to meet you!

I have three areas of specialty. 1) Dialectical behavior therapy for people with intense emotions and self-identity issues. 2) Effective treatment for anxiety and OCD. 3) ADHD treatment for adults involving tools and strategies.

My approach to therapy

People are not their diagnoses. I prefer to get to know you. What do you want out of therapy? What is currently working for you, not working? Therapy is not only about reducing suffering, but also finding meaning and fulfillment. It is about getting to know ourselves, parts that we love, parts that we are afraid of, parts that we don't yet understand. People are also not things that need to be "fixed", instead, this is a place for healing, self-compassion, and growth.

What you can expect from me

You can expect to be heard and understood. I will be in your corner and strive to give you the best care possible.
